  • Willy Adames SS | SF

    Giants' Willy Adames: Multi-hit effort in defeat

    Adames went 2-for-4 in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Tigers.

    Adames singled twice in the loss, delivering his first multi-hit performance since May 16. The 29-year-old shortstop had gone 0-for-11 over his previous three games, and he has been struggling of late. Adames is now slashing .210/.288/.336 with 30 runs scored, 25 RBI, 16 extra-base hits -- including five homers -- two stolen bases and a 26.3 percent strikeout rate across 240 plate appearances this season.

  • Corey Seager SS | TEX

    Rangers' Corey Seager: To return Wednesday

    Seager (hamstring) will be activated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday against the Blue Jays, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

    He faced live pitching over the weekend and was expected to be activated sometime during this series against Toronto. It was the second hamstring-related IL stint for Seager this season.

  • Carlos Correa SS | HOU

    Twins' Carlos Correa: Provides team's only offense Monday

    Correa went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Rays on Monday.

    Correa brought Minnesota to within a run with his two-run blast in the seventh inning, but that was the only time the Twins put any runs on the board. The long ball was Correa's second across four contests since returning from a concussion May 23. He's gone deep just four times through 45 games this season, though, after slugging 14 homers over 86 regular-season contests last year.

  • Zachary Neto SS | LAA

    Angels' Zach Neto: Provides lone run in loss

    Neto went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Yankees.

    Neto lifted a moonshot in the first inning, taking Ryan Yarbrough deep on a 440-foot homer to center field. That was not a sign of coming attractions, as the Angels' offense struggled for the remainder of the game. Neto has homers five times and added 12 RBI over his last 14 contests, going 17-for-56 (.304) in that span. The shortstop is batting .283 with an .875 OPS, nine homers, 20 RBI, 29 runs scored, eight stolen bases and 10 doubles over 35 games this season.

  • Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Logs steal Monday

    Bogaerts went 1-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 4-3 extra-innings win over the Marlins.

    Bogaerts continues to be a factor on the basepaths with four steals over his last nine games. His hitting has cooled off in that stretch -- he's gone a modest 6-for-30 (.200) with three walks and six strikeouts, and he hasn't logged an RBI or an extra-base hit since he homered May 14 versus the Angels. The slump has the shortstop down to a .232/.320/.333 slash line with three home runs, 10 steals, 20 RBI and 21 runs scored over 52 contests this season.

  • Orlando Arcia 3B | COL

    Rockies' Orlando Arcia: Headed to Colorado

    Arcia agreed to a one-year, major-league contract with the Rockies on Monday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

    Arcia didn't have to wait long to find work after being released by Atlanta on Sunday. Once his deal with Colorado is finalized, he'll look to join his new club on the current road trip in Chicago, per Alvarez-Montes. Though Arcia has played primarily at shortstop during his career, the Rockies have Ezequiel Tovar locked in at that position on a long-term contract, so Arcia will likely end up seeing most of his opportunities at second base. Rookie Adael Amador has been serving as the Rockies' primary option at the keystone, but he's produced a lowly .473 OPS over 98 plate appearances and could end up being supplanted by Arcia.

  • Xavier Edwards 2B | MIA

    Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Taking part in baseball activities

    Edwards (back) has been participating in baseball activities, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    Edwards was placed on the 10-day injured list May 18 due to a left mid-back strain and has since been given the green light to resume baseball activities. The club has yet to provide a firm timeline for the 25-year-old, and it remains to be seen whether a rehab assignment will be required before activating Edwards from the IL.

  • Jacob Wilson SS | ATH

    Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Clubs sixth homer

    Wilson went 3-for-4 with a solo home run during Sunday's 5-4 win over Philadelphia.

    Wilson reached base four times during the victory and belted a solo homer to lead off the bottom of the first inning. The performance marked his second consecutive three-hit game and his fifth game in May with at least three hits. In 215 plate appearances this season, Wilson is slashing .350/.393/.495 with 12 walks and 11 strikeouts.

  • Trea Turner SS | PHI

    Phillies' Trea Turner: Plates three in loss

    Turner went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, an RBI single and a sacrifice fly during Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Athletics.

    Turner accounted for three of Philadelphia's four runs Sunday and logged his fifth multi-hit game in his last seven appearances. The shortstop's three RBI marked a season high. On the year, Turner is slashing .310/.365/.443 with five home runs, 14 stolen bases and 37 runs scored.

  • Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Delivering strong month of May

    Henderson went 1-for-2 with two walks, two runs scored and a stolen base in Sunday's 5-1 win over Boston.

    It was Henderson's first time drawing multiple walks since April 19, and he's now posted at least one hit in seven of his last nine outings. Over 89 at-bats in the month of May, the All-Star shortstop is batting a strong .303 with four home runs, four doubles, nine RBI, 15 runs scored and three stolen bases. Although the lefty-hitting Henderson has a weak .422 OPS versus left-handed pitching this season, he's crushed righties to the tune of a .981 OPS so far.
